Eating Porridge Is Benefit To Your Body In Summer 夏天喝粥养身体
Hot day always makes people lose their appetite in the summer. if you eat less, you can't supply energy to your body. Porridge not only can fill your stomach, but also has the advantage of digestion. . It is very benefit to your body.
Many peoples are accustomed to sitting in a air-conditioned room, eating cold food to relive heat when the day is very hot. but some experts think that eating too cold food can only relieve heat for a while and can't relieve heat really in the summer.
people have too much Yang (阳气) and the new supersedes the old is very strong and more water loss. So the food is dominated by light diet and digestible food. Don't eat too much cold and oily food. If you can eat some porridge, it not only can supply some water your body need but also supply nutritional material for you body and prevent disease by mixing the rich ingredients.

What's the origin of porridge? I guess I always thought that it was european. And as a follow up question, whats the difference between porridge and soup or a stew?
@jhermanbeans, porridge is that rice or other grains is main ingredients.
as for soup, I feel normally it mainly contains vegetables or meat.
Thanks for the clarification. Much appreciated.
you are welcome..
give me!!!
haha, no problem ! ^_^
@jhermanbeans In most western countries, porridge refers to a dish made by boiling rolled oats in milk or water. I typically use a combination of milk and water to make porridge in the morning. It's very nutritious and cheap.
Soup is a liquid dish made from boiling meat, fish or vegetables.
Stew is similar to soup, but less liquid is used, thickeners are usually added and the dish is simmered for a much longer time, which results in the liquid turning into a thick gravy.
Thank you for adding to this. I know this sounds dumb, but I guess I always just felt like porridge was a fairy tale anachronism. Something magical bears ate, but that didn't actually exist. Gonna have to seek it out, and have some!
I usually eat it in the winter
also good!!@djohan
Even though I live in Asia, I have never tried the Asian style porridge, Cambodians love it though.
@hengist-horsa. you can try it in the morning. :) thank you for your reply.
it looks delicious and satisfying
thank you @shady ^_^
Porridge go by different name in Chinese.
粥，糜，稀饭are what I see before over here.
Wonder if there's any real different.
呵呵，这个我也不好说。粥比稀饭要稠一些，食材丰富。但有时所指也相同。
可能是日子久了模糊到分不清。
